Is it really necessary to keep the two separate networks though? If SBS meets your needs then your company can't be particularly big, do you really need two WAN connections? If you specifically want to keep both connections, you could use a dual-WAN router to load balance the connections.

It's a bit silly, to route out of the network and back in, but seems like the simplest solution.

The OTHER way to do it, would be to get another router, with 2 ethernet interfaces.
Connect one interface to each switch, with an ip addrss relevant for each domain, then have it route accordingly.
You'd need to probably ALSO publish the correct routes on the T1 routers if you can, because they're the default routers, and you want to know that it'l redirect them.

i think the other question is, WHY are you doing that.. what do you want to acheive ?

You'd like to combine both workgroups into the same domain on an SBS 2008 box.

Questions:
1. It sounds like you have 1 T1 for the office internet and then a 2nd explicitly for a Citrix connection, correct?
2. It sounds like there are two distinct business groups: one that only uses the external connection, and one that only uses the Citrix connection? Is this two distinct businesses / companies?
3. How many employees / computers / servers are there currently? Is there an estimated growth rate in the next 6 months / 1 year / 2 years?
